Trigger input
The TRIG terminal is an external digital trigger input. The trigger mode is software selectable for edge or level
sensitive.
 Edge sensitive mode is configurable for rising or falling edge.
 Level sensitive mode is configurable for high or low level.
The default setting at power up is edge sensitive, rising edge.
Counter input
The CTR terminal is a 32-bit event counter that can accept frequency inputs up to 10 MHz. The internal counter
increments when the TTL levels transition from low to high.
Power output
The +VO terminal can output up to 10 mA maximum. You can use this terminal to supply power to external
devices or circuitry.
Ground
The analog ground (AGND) terminals provide a common ground for all analog channels.
The digital ground (
GND) terminals provide a common ground for the digital, counter, timer, and clock
channels and the power terminal.
